Just curious to see if anyone has seen any recent full power 10 mm hollowpoint offerings from the major manufacturers?

It seems that the only one left out there that's readily available is the tried and true 175 grain Winchester Silvertip (1290 fps, 175 grain bullet), along with the folks from Double Tap.

I haven't really seen any anywhere. I think that the success of the .40, the shorter version of the more powerful 10mm, has really affected the 10mm market. 10mm is a little too strong for most casual shooters so there isn't a market for it.

One of the gun rags just did an article on the 10 a few months back. Had a lot of info about current ammo manufacturers. I'll see if I can dig it out of the stack some time tonight.

Peace favor your sword,
